This second card, following on from yesterday, was done in a more sensible manner, with another set of Hobby Art stamps, with a really Provençal feel to them. This time, I used the Clarity coated stock, and did some masking to get the trees etc in the right place. I brayered the background and tried to get a vivid sunset look to it. I used the Promarkers to colour in the houses and the trees etc., going over parts to try to show shade areas. I mounted the stamps on Clarity handles, which was great as it allowed me to see exactly where I was placing things. The pathway is not quite as I had envisaged, so I need to explore that in the future to improve things.
I am hoping I have now fooled Mr Linky and he will let me play in the Craft a Scene Challenge for this month. I really enjoy playing around to create the scenes as I want them, and once I have finished this month's cards, a lot more playing will follow.
